on the road again

so i am heading to fabulous orlando florida tomorrow morning for six long days. sounds nice, huh? yeah, except for the fact that i will be spending the ENTIRE WEEK inside a hotel, moving from conference room to conference room. we might as well be going to dubuque. (is that how you spell it? it seems much more exotic when you actually spell it out)

anyway, it's the national ms society's annual conference, where my colleagues and i will be educating and entertaining and motivating and inspiring and training about 900 of our closest friends. i'm quite looking forward to it, but i'm somewhat anxious as well- i have some small roles to play, and a few of these are making me nervous. take saturday morning, for example, when i will be addressing the entire conference (1200 or so silent staring faces...), with our ceo at my side. my heart starts pounding just thinking about it.

anyway i leave bright (thanks to our friend daylight savings) and early tomorrow, and come home saturday evening. a long week, but i'm hopeful that it will also be fun, and i'm looking forward to meeting a lot of my colleagues from across the country.

so it's not likely that i'll be posting much this week, and in case you become disturbed or alarmed at my absence, all i can say is, if i'm not back in 15 minutes, just wait longer!

cheerio just now.
